It looks too processed, to be honest. Might make for an interesting poster I suppose.

You can see another car's license plate in the passenger window. It's RHD brah.

I agree, it looks like someone trying to make a sh!tty looking car look better through the use of overzealous and extreme filters and photoshopping.

It's too underexposed, but that's just my opinion. Like Jesdar said, would be a nice poster.

The effect puts focus on the car not the surroundings, kinda looks like those posters of cars shot in a darkened black studio. I recently saw a car photo shot in low light with a tripod, long exposure and a flashlight to "light paint the car into the frame. Made the paint look glassy.

I like what you did with the photo, and I agree it's poster worthy for a polished up car, but it doesn't work as well for an abused drift car.
